Latest Liverpool: IFAB chairman discusses VAR Audio Live Ian Wright predicts ‘big problems’ ahead. Jurgen Klopp’s men could have been the best team in the league had it not been for a VAR error against Tottenham. Despite the mistakes, he remains in touch with the leaders and looks like a title contender. We’ll bring you the latest news from Liverpool.
The IFAB president takes the decision directly through VAR. Despite the VAR error, it was Liverpool who received the most criticism after the Spurs game. Following the club’s official announcement, Klopp admitted that a replay would be the fairest sporting result, infuriating his opponents. But it’s about time someone took a closer look at the VAR process.
Obviously, that didn’t work and the disallowance of Luis Diaz’s goal at least shed some light on that. Brood seems to have lost its essence, so to speak. Chaos has no reason to hide the sound from the audience. This is clear evidence that IFAB and others need to review their processes. If you want to know how confusing vote counting can be for policymakers, take a look at Diaz’s story.”I think people are leaving Liverpool with so much hype around Tottenham, Arsenal and Manchester City doing their part,” Wright said. “And they will be very happy because they have everything in place in every department to keep fighting the raiders. If Liverpool can make inroads, I think they are definitely good players.” It’s a big problem for everyone.
The light is in place. It feels like 2021/22. Nobody tipped Klopp to do anything spectacular, but the final weeks of the campaign have seen him climb to an unprecedented top-four finish. Perhaps Liverpool have gone too far this time.
